 Good evening, Beautiful People!


Card Kits are the best! They come with everything inside that you need!


The card kit box. Use it for storing supplies later!
Or anything else you can think of...


This is Sarah (Virginia's daughter) writing tonight. Mom is "stamped out" from attending the Creativate Retreat today. Mom and I put together a card kit last night, and we think it's the most beautiful card kit that Stampin' Up! has done so far. It's called Sentimental Rose and it's lovely! 



The all-inclusive kit contains an acetate (clear plastic) box to decorate and store the cards and their matching envelopes in. You also receive a Gray Granite Classic Stampin'™ Spot (that is, a tiny light gray ink cube!!), an acrylic block for your stamps to stick to, and all the adhesives/glue and embellishments you need. 

We also used some of the Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue (A.K.A. Green Glue) and I prefer the Stamparatus for stamping (because I have clumsy fingers!!). Stampin' Spots work great on the Stamparatus.

...

Wait- what's a Stamparatus??

It's a handy tool for stamping multiple images, or for stamping again exactly where you stamped before. For example, when the ink doesn't come out dark enough, you can restamp right there and darken it without smudging. Genius!!
With the ruled lines it makes it much easier to line up images properly.
It is $67 but with the 20% - 25% discount demonstrators enjoy, you can get it for only $53.60. If you are a clutsy person like me, you NEED this tool! Don't want to sign up for the discount? Ask us for other ways you can get it for less!


The handy dandy STAMPARATUS tool.
Don't be caught without it!

Here is an image of all the pieces you receive:


I adjusted the colours a bit so that the pieces are easier to see. The original image is available here.
All you need is a pair of scissors (or really strong teeth) to cut the twine!




Here are some of the cards we made, and the gift box:



The cards measure 3.5" x 5" and they have matching envelopes. You are given enough supplies to make 9 cards, 3 each of 3 different designs. 



All three cards. I made most of the pink ones, while Mom did the rest.
She is faster than me!
